already August!? it seems as if this blog went on vacation, but it’s not; I’ve noticed I have to update some links like new Karen Ruane blog and refer to some new blogs I have been reading through Google Reader and never referred to, such as:

Il Piacere del Ricamo by Silvana Fontanelli, author of some embroidery books; I’ve found she has beautiful and perfect tutorials about drawn threads (go and see – much better than mine, of course!) it is written in Italian ( I read Italian and see if I learn Italian without attending classes…)Trish Burr’s blog who doesn’t know Trish Burr’s books and kits?!Bluebell Wood by Beth Lea, a very interesting blog where Beth shares her studies and investigation on historical pieces;Whitework Embroidery by JudyC who was so supportive during drawn thread series – she has exquisite works!
still viver o Porto which keeps me informed about what goes on in the town I live, thanks Paula C.!

this is what I’m working on: the big tablecloth eyelets+french knots+eyelets+french knots and on and on and on…
